I need it because otherwise programs written in latest java will not be run.I haven't used the JDK for Java 5, but when I installed the JDK for 1.4.2, it included the Java runtime. Doesn't the JDK for Java 5 include the JRE as well? It'd be a bit strange if it included the compiler and not the runtime.Yes, the JDK does install the JRE. Look in the directory: /usr/lib/j2sdk1.5-sun/ and you will see a jre subdirectory. There is no need to install the JRE separately.I knew it did in the debs for 1.4.2 and know it does in the raw Sun install for Java 1.6, but was not going to speak for the package in between that I never used. Thanks for the verification. Hal apt-get install java-package to install appropriate bin package later but it can not find "java-package". It is strange because "java-package" exists in debian's packages list at "http://snapshot.debian.net/". Can anybody help? Thanks, D. |
